10 Weirdo's War by Michael Coleman
A pleasant surprise, a good boys-will-be-boys story; the characters were very layered, the writing was psychological and the ending was pretty intense.
9 North of Nowhere by Liz Kessler
This book had really likeable protagonists, a sense of mystery and a huge twist!
8 Five Kingdoms: Sky Raiders by Brandon Mull
Amazing world-building! This book is fun and imaginative and the characters were really believable. Does fantasy get any more epic than this?!
7 Percy Jackson and the Lightening Thief by Rick Riordan
Okay, maybe it does!
6 Holes by Louis Sachar
Another good boys-will-be-boys story that proves that you don't need big words for big emotion.
5 The Children's Crusade by Henry Treece
This was just a HUGE story! Why don't we study this in history lessons?
4 Torchwood: Trace Memory by David Llwellyn
This book was pretty scary and had the first gay romance I've read. With so many gay romance books out there, a Torchwood novel may seem an odd place to start, but I really felt for it!
3 The Child's Elephant by Rachel Campbell-Jonston
This book has some of the most beautiful, poetic writing I've ever read!
2 Doctor Who: Shining Darkness by Mark Michalowski;
This was as funny and imaginative as Douglas Adams!
